Cream Sherry

Relax after a long day's work with a glass of our Cream Sherry, a delicious blended wine with hints of raisins, nuts and caramel, and fortified with 190-proof grape brandy. Enjoy a glass by itself, with sharp cheeses and desserts, or as an ingredient in soups, stews and sauces. Serve at cool room temperature or lightly chilled. (Maine, Montana and Vermont laws prohibit us from shipping this wine to their residents.)

Cream Sherry has been a Hunt family favorite for generations, a perfect drink for relaxation before or after a nice meal. The foundation of our Cream Sherry is a blend Cayuga White and Cabernet Sauvignon wines. We fortify the wine with pure grape distilled spirits to achieve the perfect balance between the flavors, sweetness and alcohol. We then heat and bubble oxygen through the blend for a month or more to produce the beautiful "darker" flavors of raisin, nut and caramel. Crucial to this step is our condenser coil that traps evaporating alcohol and returns it to the wine.

Neither my wife nor I are Sherry lovers. At least we weren’t until we were introduced to this gem by suggestion of the Hunt Country tasting room server. The first sip unleashes a fantastic explosion of sparkling flavors that won’t quit. It’s the best sherry either one of us have ever had. The local store didn’t carry it so we tried another (more expensive) brand. Not even close. It was as if someone had carefully removed the flavor. This sherry is a great alternative to wine when you feel like something different – more like sipping a fine single malt whiskey.

This is one of the most amazing dessert wines we have ever had. It's smooth and sweet without being syrupy, and the caramel tones are just magical. We took some to friends in another state, and now they are hooked, too! We can't wait to order more!

My mom and dad brought this to my house for my dad's birthday weekend. I'm not a huge sherry fan, but this is by far the best sherry I have ever had. My mom and dad agree! It's sweet, but not cloying, and it gives you that nice warm feeling without burning. It is done perfectly. I had a glass every night after dinner, and I rarely if ever do that; it is THAT good!
